Prowler's Saban Quote

Prowler's Saban Quote
« on: November 07, 2010, 09:06:49 AM »
I think this is what Prowler was looking for...

Quote
"This whole year everyone around us has been very concerned about the results that the team gets in comparison to what was accomplished a year ago," Saban said. "That hasn't been the best thing for the development of this team. I think they have become very result oriented. We've never really ever developed to be as good as team ... as we are capable of."

"We need to get back to focusing on the process and not really focusing on wins and losses," said offensive lineman Barrett Jones, stoic and parroting as a Stepford Wife. "It's something we got away from a little bit."

"You don't look at the scoreboard. You don't do the emotional things that fans do and enjoy doing," Saban said. "You have to focus on what you're doing to do your job with effort and toughness."

I think he's spot on. You focus on what you have to do, do it well, and the rest will work out. You can't focus or dwell on what you can't control... That being said, it's his job to make sure these guys understand that, and he obviously needs to come up with new ways to keep these fellows focused. That is his job after all.

A national championship is a wonderful thing, but if you're not enough without it, you'll never be enough with it.

Stoic and parroting as a Stepford wife is no way to go through life son.

We have a phukin blueprint here, a standard, It doesn't matter if it's last years team you're emulating or next years team, this is the phukin Capstone, the Mecca of college football. We do what we do and we do it better. Others only think they do what we do only they don't have a clue. At Alabama we know what we do and what we have to do to get better as a team, because in the end if everyone is on the same page, we will do what everyone else only dreams of doing, and that's playing for championships, It's that simple!

Oh handsome one...

I agree, and I agree with what Saban is saying.  However, they ALL sound like they're on script in the post game. 

You can't evaluate the play of your team without talking about the players in terms of the team.  There's a major difference from throwing a particular player under the bus, and talking about what your team failed to accomplish.   You can say "We can't afford to turn the ball over".  You can't say "Ingram and Richardson turning the ball over cost us the game".  The net effect is the same in terms of what you really said...but there's a difference. 

It might help things a little if Saban would even acknowledge (more than just in passing or in claiming how his team didn't do what they were supposed to do)  that they had a formidable opponent on the other side of the ball. 

Heard Saban talk about the big run play that LSU got off that speed sweep.  Said they came out in a formation and personnel package that threw them off, that bammer was in bad personnel, and that the motion caused them to get outflanked and outnumbered at the point of attack, and they didn't adjust...said the shoulda called Time Out.  This is one of those thing fans don't see or even realize...it's one play out of the ordinary for LSU...LSU runs 85% plays bammer has seen on film, and they run one play, from different personnel and formation...and they put this play in for the express purpose of showing something new and hoping it nets SOME success...it got them a TD.  That one single play call is more "offensive genius" than any fan will realize, and Saban knows it is one play that probably cost them the game or contributed to it heavily.  IOW the defensive genius got "out coached" by the OC, Gary Crowton, that many LSU fans have wanted canned for a while.

And the funniest thing about it is, after seeing the actual quote, I think you are even more dumb for the comments you made about it. You just bumped your own fail.

Stay stupid my friend.
